Awesome job. At that place, it seems that when you’re on, you’re on. I have the same issue with the crowds so rarely go there and usually choose to head to IN. Which table did you hit it on? I count the 14′ away from the aisle as 1, then 2 and 3 the 12′ coming around the U left to right, and then 4 as the aisle side 14′.

Im usually at the table closet to the cage or the one across. The limits are usually 15 or 25. I do not usually go to the R but went there because I had to meet someone at ORD. When I go to Hammond, its usually at night on a Friday or Saturday. Ill let you know.

Great report. You were really on. Especially liked that the last roll when upped your odds to black. We like your confidence.

You must remember, that like us, you know that the odds portion of the bet is never at risk in the long run. If you play long enough you will at the very least (even with random rollers) break even since the casino pays the true odds. The loss of the odds is simply a temporary hit against your bank roll. BUT since we are advantage players we will win money in the long run. Got this concept from Goldfinger.

Rose and Doc

You said, "I rolled 26, 40, 13, 26."

Think about this: You never know when you will 7 out BUT, assuming you had all the numbers, had you left your odds or pressed your odds more rather than lessening them, with 6 more rolls you would have won more money — or been even with what you did at best if you hit no repeat in the 6 numbers. (Because you would have collected those amounts you "saved" in the payouts.)

You might have been down a touch if you hit no repeat and some craps.

Had you hit no craps and even one repeat in the 6 you would have certainly been ahead with even a small press. You would have left more on the table but more left on the table, if you are having a decent roll, means more in the rack unless you are going a bit nuts on the presses just before you 7.

Read what the Doc wrote again to understand the point he makes,
"You must remember, that like us, you know that the odds portion of the bet is never at risk in the long run.

So, unless you are sure you are going to 7-out in 6 rolls or less it likely does not pay to lower your odds bet.

Anyone can bring any statistics they want but when your throw is good, they cannot predict or staticize when you will screw up so… go for it.

Had you rolled 27 numbers with no craps in the last 7, lowering the odds bets after 20 would have cost you money.

Yes i agree with the above comments. On the last roll, I had money put aside, knowing i will walk out with at least that much. I had about 7 black chips left and immediately placed put bets on the 5,6,8,9, something like 200, 100, 100, 200 and pressed them with just about every roll. I ended up doubling the amount of money that i had put aside. I understand that a "seven" can come out at any moment but at one point, I had 500 odds on the 6 n 8, and 500 to 800 odds on the 5 n 9 with the 4 and 10 in play too for much smaller amounts. Also had 100 on hard 8 and 9, which I hardly ever pay. I was long in the roll and wanted to take some risk off. It doesnt always work out that way.

Its gone the other way where Ive pressed my bets and then seven ed out shortly after.
